Helian Jue patted Qiao You on the back. "Brother understands."

"I will help Xiaoyu figure everything out. Your brother will always be here for you."

Qiao You's tail wagged slightly, gleaming beautifully under the light.

Helian Jue bent down and carefully picked up the little pearls on the bed. Qiao You looked at her brother wearing a dark gray bathrobe. He looked so handsome! She felt very at ease.

The mischievous little fish flicked its tail tip to touch Helian Jue's calf, swishing left and right.

Whenever his older brother was focused on something, he would try to tease him, and his brother would always look at him gently with a smile he loved.

Helian Jue was clearly facing away from Qiao You, but he still managed to touch the silver-blue tail that had come to cause trouble.

"Baby," Helian Jue said gently, "be good."

"If we don't pick up all the little pearls, the baby will cry for his brother tonight, saying that the bed is uncomfortable."

Qiao You's tail became even more agitated, so Helian Jue stopped talking and continued picking up the small pearls.

Its tail tip started wagging mischievously, constantly bothering Helian Jue, patting it here and there.

"Baby." Helian Jue raised his hand to cover Qiao You's tail. "Don't be naughty!"

Qiao You looked at Helian Jue with an open and honest gaze, the meaning of which was very clear: Brother, would you like to play with Xiaoyu?

Helian Jue was somewhat incredulous. What had his little fish learned without his knowledge? Hadn't the StarNet been cleaned up recently?

"Brother." The ethereal voice of the young boy called out to Helian Jue again and again.

Previously, when Helian Jue was researching information about the mermaid race, he found that the mermaids' voices were very alluring.

At this moment, Helian Jue truly felt it.

Qiao You rushed over, her jade-like arms encircling Helian Jue, and whispered in his ear, continuing to call for help.

"Brother, look at it!"

"Do you think the tail is ugly?" Qiao You started to argue unreasonably.

The silvery-blue tail was beautiful and felt wonderful to the touch; this was the first time Helian Jue had ever felt a small fish's tail like this.

A sly glint flashed in Qiao You's eyes, prompting Helian Jue to carefully observe it.

"What is this...?" Helian Jue felt that the fish scales here were different from those in other places. A bold idea popped into his mind, but he immediately dismissed it. "It shouldn't be, right?"

Qiao You's eyes reddened even more as she leaned close to Helian Jue's ear and whispered three words.

Helian Jue immediately felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy and wanted to let go and distance himself from Qiao You.

How could a mermaid who had finally managed to lure someone into her trap possibly let go?

In ancient Earth legends, mermaids would always sing while swishing their tails on the rocks, attracting lost sailors to come and find out what was going on.

Qiao You pounced on Helian Jue like a mountain bandit king capturing his beloved bride.

Xiaoyu had previously said that he often fought with sharks and killer whales in the sea. At the time, he was a little skeptical. Was Xiaoyu really that good at fighting?

But now, he experienced firsthand just how strong an adult mermaid really is.

He is now completely unable to move.

“Brother…” Qiao You looked at Helian Jue with a pitiful expression, feeling somewhat aggrieved.

Little Fish was very pleased with himself. He knew how to manipulate his older brother. As long as he acted pitiful and coquettish, his brother would agree to anything.

Helian Jue was utterly helpless. Did he not want to? He did! He desperately wanted to! He wanted to all the time!

But he needs to know if it will cause harm if the little fish does this with him in her mermaid form.

"Baby, listen to your brother first." Helian Jue wanted to calm Xiaoyu down first. "I'll go first..."

Qiao You ignored everything and started kissing Helian Jue, refusing to listen!

Qiao You gasped for breath, which greatly alarmed Helian Jue. After a long pause, he whispered something.

"Don't worry, brother."

"Brother, will you be a good boy?"

...

Qiao You was busy all night long.

The fish's usually nimble tail was now stiff as if it had been struck by iron, unable to move.

Qiao You realized he had been too hasty...

As the night grew deeper, Qiao You was exhausted. Helian Jue truly lived up to his reputation as the God of War of the Empire; he was indeed formidable.

Qiao You began to silently regret his actions; he really had no choice but to court disaster...

In the very end, Qiao You was filled with regret. Why did he have to say that?!

Never mess with your brother!

Remember this!

Before Qiao You completely lost consciousness, this was the only thought that came to mind.
